‘The Office’ tops list of time-shifted TV shows

Cory Bergman October 12th, 2006

The show with the most delayed viewing, according to Nielsen’s new DVR ratings, is NBC’s The Office. The show’s ratings jump an amazing 11 percent when you count all the people who watched it within seven days of airing. (Keep in mind, DVRs account for just 9 percent of Nielsen’s sample.) Fox’s House gained 10.5 percent from DVRs. Grey’s Anatomy, 8 percent. And Lost, 5 percent. Meanwhile, TiVo’s list of the top season pass shows (shows that people have signed up to watch the entire season) begins with Grey’s, Desperate and Lost. The Office ranks 16th.
